In the midst of a snow squall ON 697's engineman Wayne re-aligns the south switch at Martins for the main and conductor Phil looks on from the back door of the cafe car as the Northlander takes the siding for a meet with CN 450. 450 was creeping along slow enough for 698 to get clear, and Wayne to lock the switch in place in time for it to keep moving for this meet. Sorry Phil, I forgot to say Merry Christmas and enjoy your holidays when getting off the train today, (Friday Dec. 17). So, Merry Christmas and enjoy your holidays!
